Ibn `Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:
When `Ali (May Allah be pleased with him) came out after visiting the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) during his last illness, the people asked: "How is Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), O Abul-Hasan?'' He replied: "Praise be to Allah, he (ﷺ) is feeling better.'' <b>[Al-Bukhari]</b>.
عن ابن عباس، رضي الله عنهما، أن علي بن أبي طالب، رضي الله عنه خرج من عند رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ، في وجعه الذي توفي فيه فقال الناس: يا أبا الحسن كيف أصبح رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ؟ قال: أصبح بحمد الله بارئاً" ((رواه البخاري)).
